The terms "resume" and "curriculum vitae"(CV)generally mean the same thing: a one or two-page document describing one’s educational qualifications and professional experience. However, the guidelines for preparing a resume are constantly changing. The best advice is to find out what is appropriate regarding the corporate culture, the country culture, and the culture of the person making the hiring decision. The challenge will be to incorporate two or more cultures into one document. The following list is a good place to start.
   In many countries, it is standard procedure to attach a photo or have your photo printed on your resume. Do not attach a photograph to your resume if you are sending it to the United States: the employer will dispose of it.
   Educational requirements differ from country to country. In almost every case of cross-border job hunting, just stating the title of your degree will not be an adequate description. Provide the reader with details about your studies and any related experience. The same advice is true for experienced professionals who have participated in numerous training or continuing education courses.
   The safest way to ensure that your resume is culturally correct is to review as many examples as possible. Ask employers or recruiters for examples of resumes that they thought were particularly good.
   If you can, ask someone who is a native speaker of the language in which your resume is written to review your document. One goal of your resume should be to show your familiarity with the culture by using culturally appropriate language.
   Most employers who want to hire from abroad must be able to certify to their local government that they are unable to find locals with the required skills necessary to do the job. Be aware that obtaining a work permit can take a few months.
   To be successful, and to enjoy your experience abroad, you must be flexible, open-mined, and both eager and willing to learn new ways of doing things. Ask questions to demonstrate your interest in learning and broadening your horizons. Remember that you represent your country to everyone you meet.
